A diver searches for a sunken treasure that is 97.2 feet below the surface. What is the diver’s elevation when he is 2/3
of the way down?(
To find the diver's elevation when he is 2/3 of the way down, we need to first calculate how far down he has gone.
2/3 of the way down translates to (2/3) * 97.2 feet = 64.8 feet.
The diver's elevation when he is 2/3 of the way down would then be 97.2 feet - 64.8 feet = 32.4 feet below the surface.
To find the diver's elevation when he is 2/3 of the way down, we need to find 2/3 of 97.2 feet.
First, we calculate 2/3 of 97.2:
2/3 * 97.2 = 64.8 feet.
Therefore, when the diver is 2/3 of the way down, his elevation is 64.8 feet below the surface.
To find the diver's elevation when he is 2/3 of the way down, we need to calculate 2/3 of 97.2 feet.
First, we'll find 2/3 of the distance:
2/3 * 97.2 feet = 2 * 97.2 feet / 3 = 194.4 feet / 3 = 64.8 feet
So, when the diver is 2/3 of the way down, his elevation is 64.8 feet below the surface.
